The weekend is approaching and Figueira da Fozis preparing for another sea of events happening all over the municipality. Now listen:
Yesterday began, and continues until Saturday, another edition of Woodrock, a festival of modern rock music with heavier sounds taking place in Quiaios, and whose organization has been successfully defending environmental sustainability practices. MeetFigueira is a proud partner.
There’s Vinyl at Casino Figueira. We went to the premiere, wrote the corresponding chronicle and recorded it photographically. Now entering its 2nd week of screening, running until the beginning of September, it is a guarantee of high quality entertainment. The proposal stands.
If you pass by the Casino, don’t forget that the Francesinhas Festival has already started!
Today is Friday and as such there are movies at CAE. From the multi-award-winning Turkish director and historian Emin Alper comes one of the “fiercest trilers of the season”: Days in Flames. It starts at 21:30 and the ticket costs 4€.
Another edition of the Book Fair opens tomorrow at Praça Dr. Fernando Traqueia in Buarcos. The program is extensive and begins with the presence at the weekend of Júlio Magalhães and João Pinto Coelho.
Saturday morning, the Municipal Stadium José Bento Pessoa will be a children’s paradise, with the “circus” of the Panda Festival settling in Figueira da Foz. More information here: https://canalpanda.pt/destaques/festival-panda-2023/
